The one that describes the 13 body types. One that I was scared to voice. When I first started learning about the Kibbe body types, back in , I first typed myself as soft classic.
So I retook the test a couple of times and landed with soft gamine. I was still a soft gamine, and my body type had never changed, it had just shifted closer to gamine. You see, I was in my mid-teens when I first took the body types test in Since , my body had changed a bit, but not in the way I thought it had.
However, my orthodontic procedures have also changed my lip shape from more thin and sharp to more full. My flesh had changed a bit, which led me to interpreting my results as more balanced than they actually were. Lots of little things shaped my view of myself, leading me to an incorrect answer about my body type. I'm a style blogger with a focus on aesthetics and the 13 Kibbe body types!

I know, easier said than done. I couldn't help thinking, sure, they can eat that becau se they were blessed with amazing genes, but if I ate that, I'd never be able to look like they do.
But I couldn't have been more wrong. Yes, everyone has different genes. Some people can eat whatever they like and still maintain their abs.
But the majority of fit people who eat pizza, french fries, and nachos every now and then? They're enjoying them in moderation. What does that mean? Instead of eating the whole thing, they're having however many bites it takes for them to feel satisfied, and then stopping. And they're probably filling up the rest of their day with whole, nutrient-dense foods. But here's the bottom line: Life is too short to stop baking if you love it or to avoid wine night with your friends.
Learning how to have just one cookie at a time, a few pieces of cheese, or two glasses of wine was a game-changer for me. Let's be real: No week challenge is going to transform your body for the long haul. Sustainable progress takes time. Creating new habits takes time. This is especially true if you have 15 pounds or less to lose.
You probably can't just cut out soda or alcohol and miraculously lose the extra weight you're carrying. The less body fat you have, the harder it becomes to shed it. That means if you go balls-to-the-wall with your diet and workout routine for three months, yes, you'll see some changes and lose some weight, but you're probably going to be disappointed that you haven't reached your goal in this short amount of time.
You might also be disappointed when you gain the weight back because you've returned to your old eating habits. This might be a controversial point of view, but I think putting visual changes and progress on the backburner is a highly effective way to enable yourself to actually reach your goals.
By working on my relationship with food through cooking, constantly chasing PRs and movements that had been too hard for me before hello, plyo push-ups , I took the focus off of weight loss.
Yes, I wanted to progress, but I wasn't thinking about my weight or how I looked on a daily basis. This also allowed me to lose weight in a sustainable way, slowly losing fat and building muscle, rather than quickly dropping 15 pounds of both. You know, that thing that happens when you meant to say "no" to the cupcakes at work and then ended up eating five. I used to do this all the time.
Starting my "healthy" diet, messing up, starting, and stopping again. What I didn't realize was that I was doing this because I valued perfection too highly. If I couldn't follow my diet perfectly, then what was the point?
In reality, perfection is simply not required. And pressuring yourself to be perfect? It inevitably leads to self-sabotage.
By facing diet trip-ups and skipped workouts with self-compassion, I was able to accept myself as not perfect-just doing my best. If I had an unplanned cupcake, NBD. It was simply back to my regularly scheduled programming afterward. One cupcake won't ruin your progress. Requiring yourself to be perfect? That will. You can see in my before picture that I felt awkward taking it.
My hips are shifted to the side, and my posture is tentative. On the right, my body looks different, but I'm also standing firm, tall, and confident.
How then are you supposed to swap bodies? Here are some directions. As seen in Freaky Friday , version. As seen in Shrek the Third. As seen in The Hot Chick. When your heart-surgeon father gets home from work, make sure he mixes himself a Bloody Mary with the serum. As seen in Like Father, Like Son. When I spoke to someone about a spell to switch bodies with a baby, some worried parent asked me if this is not dangerous.
Initially, I did not understand what they thought would be hazardous. So, if you are already asking to do spells to swap bodies really work because you are worried that someone may steal your body, then I should allay your fears? In most cases, people who use a spell to swap body weight would actually be the only ones who know.
The other person will never know unless they are told. Whatever new things you learn from that book, please be kind enough to share with us and the thousands of our readers who want more information about these new spells.
